DateLine: 4th May 2009
Pakistan have included two uncapped players, Mohammad Aamer and Shahzaib Hasan, in the 15-member squad for the ICC World Twenty20 in England in June.
Aamer, the left-arm fast bowler, was included after a very strong showing in his maiden domestic season, taking 56 first-class wickets in ten games for Rawalpindi. He was also a part of the Under-19 World Cup in Malaysia last year but his tournament was cut short by illness. Hasan is a opening batsman, and he enjoyed very healthy returns in his debut first-class season, scoring 607 runs in ten matches for Karachi Blues at the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy.
The only notable exclusion from the squad is the seamer Rao Iftikhar Anjum, who's had decent returns in the one-dayers in the last 12 months, taking 21 wickets in 14 games. However, he went wicketless in the two matches he played against Australia in the UAE.
Squad : Younis Khan (capt), Salman Butt, Ahmed Shehzad, Shoaib Malik, Misbah-ul-Haq, Shahid Afridi, Kamran Akmal (wk), Fawad Alam, Shoaib Akhtar, Sohail Tanvir, Umar Gul, Mohammad Aamer, Yasir Arafat, Saeed Ajmal, Shahzaib Hasan
